This book sits at the intersection of two lines of inquiry of critical importance to management researchers-what are the contributory factors to building an entrepreneurial company, and what is senior leadership's role in this process? Inherently cross-disciplinary, it adopts a behavioral perspective and proposes a research model delineating how various strategic leadership variables influence a firm's exhibition of entrepreneurial behaviors, captured by the entrepreneurial orientation (EO) construct.
